Vol 18 Chapter 12-9 (1/2)

ChengXiao stopped his feet in the center of the street. He looked out to Xuan who was barely visible from the distance.

ChengXiao yelled to Heng, ”If you insist up to this point, I have no other choice but to blieve in you. We are comrades… Heng, let us place a bet. We will stand here and he won't hit us with this shot. You won't be able to shoot if I am dodging while carrying you. So I will stay here. The moment he fires, I will throw you up. Then you shoot that whatever four arrow shot at him. If he hits us, we are dead. He your shot fails, we are dead. Damn it. I am a fucking retard to take this bet with you… Heng! My life is in your hand!”

Heng tightened his grip of the silver bow without saying a word in reply. He stared at the figure in the distance.

Two hundred meters away, Xuan was walking toward them. The three arrow Explosive Shot did absolutely no damage to him, not even a scratch. The Lambda Driver possessed a strict limitation. However, its power was nearly flawless in both offense and defense. This fake Xuan was like a symbol of invincibility.

Heng and ChengXiao both took a deep breath. They watched as Xuan raised his pistol. ChengXiao threw Heng up at once. At the same time, a shockwave blasted toward them and passed by just two meters from their side. The wind generated by the shockwave sent ChengXiao flying for over ten meters. He knocked his head on the ground. Luckily, this wind did not affect Heng who was in the air as much. He entered that absolute focus state again. His mind and energy were focused on the four arrows in his fingers. Everything in his eyes vanished, only Xuan remained.

(I have to hit. I have to hit… I have to hit! There are a lot of things I have to do. I have to repay her, revive her, and our future… I have to hit!)

The four arrows finally left the bow. They collided with each other consecutively until one arrow remained. The arrow seemed to have lost its traces in the visible world. It felt as though time had stopped, and the world was frozen. Only the arrow continued flying toward Xuan's chest. Bang! The arrow collided with the uniquely colored barrier.

Heng and ChengXiao's gazes were fixed on the arrow. Everything happened in just an instant. The arrow forced itself through the barrier. Once centimeter. Two centimeter. The two felt that they could see the whole process as the arrow pierced through the barrier and into Xuan's chest. It carried Xuan flying and smashed into a building.

ChengXiao immediately ran toward where Heng was falling down and caught him before he hit the ground. He cried excitedly, ”Nice, you got him. We finally killed him! You broke the power of faith!”

Heng panted heavily and said in a hurried tone, ”Run! That shot was probably very weak after it broke through the barrier. I don't even know if it could damage him. I think the shot is only going to delay him for a bit. Let's run. We have to meet up with the others first. Somehow, I have a sense that they could defeat this Xuan.”

ChengXiao put Heng on his back and ran.

Behind them, the building that Xuan collided into collapsed. Nothing moved for a while. It really appeared that Xuan had been killed.

A long time passed after ChengXiao and Heng left. The collapsed building exploded. Xuan stood in the center of the explosion. His face was pale and an arrow was half way into his chest. Yet, the shot didn't kill him after all as the barrier blocked off most of the force.

Xuan pulled the arrow off his chest and threw it onto the ground without glancing at it. +4 enchanted arrows had a corrosive property. So the flesh near the wound began to corrode similar to being poured sulfuric acid. His face showed no sign feeling just like the real Xuan. Then he ran after ChengXiao and Heng with the two Gauss pistols in hand.

WangXia, TengYi, and LiuYu were having an unusually easy time at the moment. YinKong's strength suddenly grew so much that she was slaughtering Freddy like pigs. Freddy had been killed over ten times outside the house. Unpiloted trucks and tanks were parked outside.

WangXia asked curiously, ”You are strong. I never knew you are so strong even though we trained together. I think you can even beat Zheng if you ambush him with this speed.”
